Hmm indeed, even the most recent version on SVN still mentions BUFFERSHIGH http://freedos.svn.SF.net/viewvc/freedos/kernel/trunk/docs/config.txt?view=markup (as files-/stacks-/lastdrivehigh) while we do not actually have it. Did you find more mismatches? STATIC struct table commands in config.c shows which commands are available. At first glance, only BUFFERSHIGH is wrongly mentioned in config.txt while not implemented in config.c :-) The difference between BUFFERSHIGH and the other 3 "highs" is that the latter actually do make a difference, they move things from low RAM to UMB space. Using dosdata=umb is equivalent to using all 3 "high" forms. On the other hand, BUFFERSHIGH does not actually move anything to UMB but we could just make it behave like normal BUFFERS, given that the BUFFERS are in HMA with DOS=HIGH anyway :-).
